Windows 10: How to disable backspace brightness control

The laptop I use for work has this issue where when you press the backspace key the screen brightness goes down. I tried restarting the laptop to see if it would get rid of the problem, but when I log back in to the laptop, it continues to dim the screen every time I hit the backspace key. I have no idea how it got like that but I would really like to k ow how to get rid of the function. I tried searching Google for the answer but came up short.
